Future Proof Your Kids (Universal Childrens’ Day Special)

Pause

For years we’ve been asking kids what they want to be when they grow up, but the reality today is - maybe half of the jobs these kids may work in haven’t even been invented yet. We speak to educators in the Klang Valley who are already working to modernize education and develop kids who are future ready, to get their thoughts on the tools we need to equip the next generation with, to give them the most competitive edge.
